We had the pleasure of attending the Ribbon Cutting ceremony at Valley Aesthetics MD today. Mayor Tom Sidney and Chamber Board members Keith Gourley, Rod Morgan, and Aline C. Stukart were all able to be present for this celebration of their new location and the contributions Valley Aesthetics MD makes to the Town of Renfrew. While we were there Dr. Steve Radke gave us a tour of his modern clinic and explained to us the amazing services he provides in his clinic. Valley Aesthetics MD operates at 1035 O’Brien Rd and provides Physician-led medical aesthetics including Injectables , Microneedling, Sclerotherapy (Spider Vein Treatment), Cryotherapy, and Medical-grade skincare. If you haven’t visited this calm and welcoming clinic, make sure to book a consultation with Dr. Radke.
